Lebanon’s Amal Movement group says 2 members killed fighting Israel

20 members killed fighting Israeli forces in southern Lebanon since October

By Stephanie Rady

BEIRUT (AA) - Lebanon’s Amal Movement said Saturday that two members were killed fighting Israeli forces in southern Lebanon.

The Hezbollah-allied group said the pair was killed “while fulfilling their national duty to defend Lebanon and the south," without providing details.

The new fatalities brought to 20 the number of Amal Movement members killed in clashes with Israeli forces since October.

Tensions have spiked along Lebanon's border with Israel amid cross-border attacks between Hezbollah and Israeli forces as Tel Aviv presses ahead with a brutal onslaught on the Gaza Strip, which has killed more than 40,900 victims since Oct. 7 following an attack by the Palestinian resistance group, Hamas.
